Taori Logger Studio is a web-based remote control and data management interface for Taori data loggers. It connects to your loggers over the network, reads sensor configurations, retrieves data from the database, and lets you process and download measurements — all from one place.

The interface is divided into four main pages, accessible via the icon rail on the left edge of the screen: Logger Control, Sensor Configuration, Data Processing, and Data Explorer.

The turquoise dropdown in the top bar is used to select which logger you are working with. Your selection is remembered across pages.

• 1Click the ↻ refresh button next to the dropdown to scan for available loggers. The status below the dropdown shows how many were found.
• 2Select a logger from the dropdown. The page reloads automatically and all data on the current page will update to reflect the selected logger.
• 3The status chip next to the dropdown shows the selected logger's name; its pulsing dot indicates that a logger is currently selected.

Use the icons in the rail on the left edge to navigate between pages — hover over an icon to see its name. The currently active page is highlighted with a turquoise accent line. All pages share the same logger selection. On small screens the rail collapses into a dropdown menu behind the ☰ button in the top bar.

The sun/moon button in the top bar switches between the dark theme and a high-contrast light theme designed for outdoor use in bright sunlight. Your choice is saved in the browser and applies to all pages. The sign-in page always uses the dark theme.

This card connects directly to the selected logger and requests its current status. It displays a live readout of four key indicators and the current supply voltage.

Two buttons at the bottom allow you to remotely Run (start logging) or Stop (halt logging) the selected logger.

This card queries the database monitoring system and displays the latest alert status for two automated checks associated with the selected logger.

Each alert shows its status level (OK, WARN, or CRIT) and the timestamp of the last check.

Enter the new name in the text field and click Apply. Use lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens (e.g. site-north-01). The name becomes the database measurement identifier for all sensors on this logger.

To save battery power, you can restrict the time window during which the logger accepts remote connections (e.g. SSH or this web interface) to a single one-hour slot per day.

Select a wake-up window (UTC) from the dropdown and click Apply. The logger will only be reachable during that hour. Outside of that window it will be in a low-power sleep state.

Set the option to Always on to keep the logger continuously reachable, at the cost of higher power consumption.

Controls how frequently the logger uploads recorded measurements to the database. A longer interval means fewer uploads and significantly lower power consumption.

Select the desired interval and click Apply.

Displays the current power saving configuration retrieved from the logger, including which power-saving modes are active and their current parameter values.

This page lets you view and configure the sensors connected to the selected logger. Sensors are organised by protocol across three tabs: SDI-12, Analog, and Pulse. Port boxes at the top of each tab show which ports are in use (highlighted) and which are empty.

The logger supports up to 12 SDI-12 ports. The table shows each port's protocol, sensor type, measurement interval, and sensor name.

• 1Click ↺ Get sensors to query the logger and populate the table with currently connected SDI-12 sensors.
• 2Click a port box to select it (it will highlight in turquoise).
• 3Click Edit sensor to open a form where you can update the sensor name and measurement interval for that port.
• 4Submit the form to apply the changes to the logger.

The logger supports up to 4 analog ports. These are typically used for 0–10 V or 4–20 mA sensors.

• 1Click + Add / Edit to open a form. Enter the port number, sensor type, sensor name, and measurement interval.
• 2Submit to write the sensor configuration to the logger.
• 3To remove a sensor, click Remove, enter the port number, and confirm.

The logger supports up to 2 pulse counter ports, typically used for rain gauges or flow meters. The workflow is identical to the Analog tab: use + Add / Edit to configure a port and Remove to delete a sensor assignment.

The Data Explorer page has a two-panel layout: an interactive map on the left showing all logger locations, and a data panel on the right for filtering, visualising, and downloading data from the database.

All loggers that have GPS coordinates registered in the database appear as pins on the map. Click a pin to open a popup showing the logger's latitude, longitude, supply voltage, and last-seen timestamp.

The map opens in satellite view (Esri World Imagery) by default, centred on Freiburg im Breisgau until the logger locations have loaded. Use the 🛰 Satellite Map / ☀ Street Map button in the top-right corner of the map to switch between the satellite imagery and the OpenStreetMap street layer — the button always shows the view you will switch to.

Click a logger card in the right panel to select it. Once selected, the data filter form unlocks.

Set the From and To datetime fields to define the query window. Click ↔ Max range to automatically fill in the earliest and latest timestamps available in the database for the current filter selection.

Click ▶ Preview to fetch data from the database and display it in an overlay panel at the bottom of the map, without downloading a file.

The preview panel can be viewed in two modes, switchable with the toggle buttons in the panel header:

Close the preview with the ✕ button in the panel header.

Click ↓ Download CSV to export the currently filtered data as a comma-separated values file. The file contains timestamps, field names, values, and all associated tags.

If one or more loggers are present in the database but have no GPS coordinates registered, a pink badge appears on the + Add Logger Location section showing how many are missing. Expand the section to register their location.

• 1Select the logger from the dropdown (only loggers without coordinates are listed).
• 2Enter Latitude and Longitude in WGS84 decimal degrees (e.g. 47.9569 / 7.8381).
• 3Enter the Logger Model and Project name.
• 4Optionally upload a Station Photo by clicking the photo drop area.
• 5Click Save. The logger will appear on the map after the next page refresh.

Expand the 📷 Station Photos section to update or replace the photo for an existing logger station. Select the logger from the dropdown, choose a new image file, and save.

The Data Processing page transforms raw sensor data into human-readable, labelled measurements saved as Processed Data in the database. Raw field names are generic (e.g. Value:1, Value:2); this page lets you map those to real parameter names (e.g. AirTemperature) and physical units.

You can also run Aggregations and Formulas to derive new time series from existing ones.

First select a Logger, then a Sensor from the second dropdown (shown as Port · Sensor Name · Sensor Type). If a mapping was previously saved for this sensor, it will be loaded automatically from the database.

Define the time window of raw data to process. Tick Entire time range to include all historical data (equivalent to querying from 100 years ago). Otherwise set From and To manually.

Once a sensor is selected, the mapping table appears with one row per raw field (Value:1, Value:2, etc.). For each field, choose a parameter name and a unit from the dropdowns. New parameters and units can be added inline using the + buttons next to each dropdown.

Leave a row's parameter empty if you do not want to process that particular field.

Click ▶ Process data to apply the value mapping and save the result as Processed Data in the database. The progress log below the button shows each step in real time.

The following transformations are applied to each data point:

Aggregate an existing parameter over a fixed time window and save the result as a new dataset in the database.

Write a custom mathematical formula that combines multiple parameters from the same sensor. The result is saved to the database as a new dataset with a user-defined parameter name and unit.

Available variables in the formula correspond to the parameter names mapped for the selected sensor. The formula is evaluated point-by-point over the selected time range.

The Administration page is only visible to the admin account. It is where users, projects, and logger-to-project assignments are managed. Project accounts do not see this page in the navigation rail.

The page is organised into three cards: Users, Projects, and Logger assignments.

The Users card lists every project account in the system, along with its assigned projects and any flags. Each row has actions for editing project assignments, resetting the password, and deleting the user.

Add user — fill in the inline form at the bottom of the card:

• 1Enter a Username (max 32 chars).
• 2Enter an initial Password — minimum 10 characters with a mix of letters, digits, and symbols. Share it with the user through a secure channel.
• 3Select one or more Projects in the multi-select list (hold Ctrl / Cmd to pick more than one).
• 4Click Create user. The new account appears in the table immediately.

Projects group loggers together. A project account can only see loggers belonging to its assigned projects — this is the primary access-control mechanism in the studio.

Add project — fill in the inline form:

• 1Enter a Project name.
• 2Optionally add a Description.
• 3Click Create project.

This table is the link between hardware and projects. Each row represents one logger that has reported in to the database, along with its assigned project (if any).

The end-to-end workflow for taking a freshly delivered TX1000 from the box to a project account:

• 1Power on the logger in the field. See the Hardware tab for first-time setup details.
• 2Wait for the logger to send its first data transmission. The unassigned-loggers banner on this page will then show one new entry.
• 3Open Logger assignments and pick the appropriate project from the dropdown in the new logger's row.
• 4If the project does not exist yet, create it in the Projects card first.
• 5If a new account is needed for that project, create it in the Users card with the project ticked in the multi-select.

Click the turquoise i button in the bottom-left corner of any page to open the info panel. It contains two items:

Click anywhere outside the panel to close it.
